Ha Ha...I think I'm back

I really have missed blogging! I miss sharing my heart and what God lays on my heart. I don't know if my blog posts ever make people think or change someone's heart. I don't know if these posts have meaning to anyone other than me. I do pray one day to be a voice the Lord chooses to use. I don't want to be a Bible teacher, but I sure do want to speak to the hearts of other women and young women and share His goodness with them.

I was not brought up in a Christian home. My mother spoke of God and Christ and I knew she had faith and prayed, but I didn't know what being a believer was. I didn't know what a relationship with Christ was about. We went to church on special occasions and every now and then in between. I remember at the age of 7 being in the church choir with my sister, but I also remember that didn't last long. So I know she tried the best she knew how.

I want to speak to women, especially women that are in my shoes. Sadly there is no ministry for the separated. There are couples ministries, singles ministries, and divorced ministries, but nothing for those that are separated and trying to walk this walk with God. I guess this is because in our society we have the notion that you are single, dating, married, or divorced. I can't tell you how many double takes I get when I tell people I'm married but separated and I'm not sure what God will have me to do down the line. I often wonder how many women are out there like me????? Are there any? Is there a need for a ministry for separated women waiting on the Lord for directions?

Hmmmm, many questions? At any rate, my hearts desire is to speak into the lives of other women. We'll see what God has in store.
Mom always did say if you want to make God laugh to tell Him your plans. So I would just rather not tell Him my plans, but let my heart be known and see what He will do in my life.

Wow Tasha! This really got me to thinking. There are no ministries in the church for people who are separated! I will address that in our Family & Marriage series at church.Thank you for sharing that. God just may use you to minister to those who are in this situation.
